Flavors of Sweden

 The approach of Christmas is heralded by Advent stars and seven-branched Christmas candlesticks placed prominently on windowsills, decorated with moss and lingonberry sprigs (lingonberry sauce, with its superb sweet and sour flavour, is a typical Swedish delicacy, served with turkey, game and meat.)

"The high point of Christmas in Sweden is our Christmas buffet - a smörgåsbord of traditional delicacies, both hot and cold, with an extra festive flair for Christmas Eve". The feast will undoubtedly include pickled herring with various sauces, beet salad, salmon, meat balls with onion, sausage, liver pâté and other seasonal dishes such as braised red cabbage. The centerpiece of the buffet is always a magnificent ham, and among the desserts you will find an orange-flavoured rice pudding.
